profileusername posted:There is definitely something shady going on with her. Nobody is allowed to see her use her power which she used without a devil appearing, she was fine with being shot, seemed to know about the ambush, and displays that disconnection with humanity that is attributed to devils. Maybe some kind of a devilman with an anti-devil agenda?

profileusername posted:I've been pretty interested by Chainsawman so I went and checked out Fire Punch recently and oof it is brutal. I can see the roots of Chainsawman in there. both just seem to be going for shock value and nothing else imo well fire punch at least was just "look at how EDGY this is guys"

it might be due to the translation but i'm a big fan of how forthright all the devils in chainsawman are there's no dissembling or philosophizing with them, it's all "I'M GONNA KILL YOU CUZ YOU MAKE ME MAD" and "I'LL DRINK YOUR BLOOD AND TAKE A NAP" and "THE FUTURE! IS BEST!" this extends to power as well ofc

The latest chapter really emphasized how similar the Future Devil's and Makima's eyes are.

You know how all devils have a theme associated with some human fear? Makima is clearly the human devil, representing the fear humans have of other humans.

Gonna throw in a recommendation for Ryoko. It's battle shonen set in a post apocalyptic world of mutant food. The art seems to take a lot more inspiration from western comic books than other manga and while it's a little bit rough at the beginning, it gets quite good.  This guy is broccoli

Escanor is still the only good thing about this manga. Rigged Death Trap fucked around with this message at 21:15 on Jul 31, 2019 |

Is My Hero Academia the most popular shounen in the West? I know nothing beats OP in Japan. Naruto used to be the King then it ended and I guess Attack on Titan was the next mainstream hit but everybody forgot about it for whatever reason. Now it's MHA I see everybody talking about. I used to talk anime a lot more ten years ago when the Big Three were still a thing and also Fairy Tail was at its height. I have no idea what's popular now except MHA. Maybe Black Clover?

I remember that folks on SA several years ago were pretty confident that Magi was gonna take the spot of one of the Big Three once Naruto and Bleach were wrapping up, but that sure as hell didn't happen.

I think it is cause MHA anime comes out consistently. OPM and AoT were huge in the West but gaps between seasons resulted in the fervor chilli ng, while MHA comes put every year or something which generates hype. Plus, unlike continuously running shounen anime like One Piece or Black Clover it doesn't need to rely on fillers and is a lot higher in quality as a result, I think.

Which is a shame because BC is a zippy little comic that doesn't particularly want to waste anyone's time and gets straight to the point and would have been fantastic if treated much the same way as MHA but some Business Tanaka wanted it on a child's slot so I guess eveyone has to EABODs I guess.

I forget, when Makima got off the train after being shot, did her attackers look like they'd been shot? Now this guy tries to punch her and winds up looking like he got punched instead. I'm wondering if she isn't contracted with the karma/retribution/what-goes-around-comes-around devil. People always complain about not getting what they deserve, but that presumes what they deserve isn't awful. If devils embody humanity's fears, the fear of getting what you have coming to you is probably pretty potent. The whole sacrificing death row prisoners thing kinda fits as well.

Only demons seem to have different looking eyes, or some other physical manifestation of their demon nature.

I'd be way more into western comics if they did more black and white like Japan. They are way too expensive to buy digital or otherwise.
